WHO WE HELP

Who We Help With Prenuptial Agreements in Indiana

Every couple comes to us with a different reason for wanting an agreement. We draft and review documents that fit your situation and hold up later.

  • Partners entering the marriage with unequal assets, income, or debt
  • Couples who want to address retirement accounts and household expenses
  • Anyone asked to sign an agreement who wants it reviewed first

A well-drafted agreement costs far less than litigating the same questions years later. Our attorneys draft, review, and negotiate agreements built to survive a challenge.

Why Legal Guidance Matters

An Indiana court will enforce a prenuptial agreement only when it was signed voluntarily, after full financial disclosure, and on terms that are not unconscionable. Drafting shortcuts are exactly what gets an agreement set aside.

What a Prenup Can Cover

What Can a Prenuptial Agreement Address?

An Indiana prenup can settle most financial questions in advance. We help you address each one clearly and completely.

📋

Property & Debt

Define which assets and debts stay separate and which become part of the marital estate if the marriage ends.

👨‍👩‍👧

Spousal Maintenance

Set, limit, or waive spousal support in advance, so neither of you is guessing about it later.

⚖️

Inheritance & Estate Rights

Coordinate the agreement with your will and trusts to protect an inheritance for children from a prior relationship.

HOW WE HELP

A Complete Approach to Your Prenuptial Agreement

We guide you through every stage, from the first conversation to a signed agreement you both understand.

01

Initial Consultation

We talk through your goals, your assets, and the concerns each of you brings into the marriage.

02

Financial Disclosure

We assemble a complete written disclosure of assets, income, and debts, which Indiana courts expect to see.

03

Drafting the Agreement

We prepare clear terms covering property, debt, support, and estate rights, tailored to your circumstances.

04

Review & Negotiation

We negotiate with counsel for your future spouse and revise the language until both sides are comfortable signing.

05

Signing & Execution

We handle execution well before the wedding, with independent counsel on both sides, so the agreement holds up.

06

Updates & Postnuptial Agreements

Circumstances change. We revisit the agreement, prepare amendments, or draft a postnuptial agreement when needed.

Indiana Law & Local Experience

Prenuptial Agreements Under Indiana Law

Indiana recognizes premarital agreements by statute. To be enforceable, the agreement must be in writing, signed by both parties, and entered into before the marriage takes place.

Courts look closely at whether each person disclosed their finances, had time to read the document, and had the chance to consult their own attorney. Terms that would limit the support owed to a child cannot be bargained away.

We serve clients throughout Central Indiana: Westfield, Indianapolis, Carmel, Noblesville, Zionsville, and Fishers.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions About Prenuptial Agreements in Indiana

We know you have questions. Here are answers to the concerns Indiana couples most often bring to our office before a wedding.

Are prenuptial agreements enforceable in Indiana?

Yes. Indiana enforces written premarital agreements signed by both parties before the marriage. A court can refuse to enforce one that was signed involuntarily or that rests on incomplete financial disclosure.

How far before the wedding should we sign?

As early as you comfortably can. Signing months ahead, rather than days before the ceremony, removes any argument that one of you was pressured into the agreement.

Can a prenup decide child custody or child support?

No. Indiana courts decide custody, parenting time, and child support based on the best interests of the child, and a prenuptial agreement cannot limit those rights.

What if we are already married?

You can still put an agreement in place. A postnuptial agreement covers much of the same ground, and we prepare those as well.
